What it actually is.

Harlequin is a high-CBD strain of cannabis known for its low psychoactive effects and potential medicinal properties. It is often used to help manage pain, inflammation, anxiety, and other conditions. Granddaddy Purple (GDP) is a popular Indica strain of cannabis known for its deep purple coloration and relaxing effects. It has a high THC content and is often used for its potent pain-relieving properties. Together these two strains make a potent 1:1 that is great for daytime use. Users report increased mood, decreased pain as well as stress relief.

Because it's swallowed rather than inhaled, onset is slower and the effect lasts longer — largely a result of first-pass metabolism, where the liver converts THC into a longer-acting form. That's why a tablet feels different from a vape, and why "start low, go slow" matters here.

How to take it.

01 · Start low

Begin with a quarter.

New to RSO tablets? The 25mg tablet is scored — split it into quarters and start with one, about 6mg. You can always take more next time.

02 · Give it time

Wait 30–120 minutes.

Oral onset is gradual — typically 30 minutes to 2 hours, peaking around 1.5–3 hours. Don't redose early.

03 · Find your level

Adjust slowly.

Step up by small increments across sessions until you find the amount that's right for you.

About this strain.

Strain Dossier

Beloved since the earliest days of the CBD movement, Harlequin finally finds its match in Granddaddy Purple, a heavy indica strain long-renowned in the medical cannabis world for its extremely relaxing and soporific effects. Combining these two strains, Harlequin GDP delivers both the mind-altering benefits of THC and the soothing effects of CBD, offering even greater therapeutic potential than either cannabinoid provides alone.

Applicable Conditions

Harlequin GDP should be considered an ideal strain for both conditions often treated by THC (appetite loss, depression) and those treated by CBD (neurological conditions, chronic pain). Balancing THC and CBD in nearly equal quantities, this strongly indica-leaning strain makes you feel even more relaxed than you’ll usually feel with THC, serving as a real-world example of the entourage effect in action.

Specific Effects

Harlequin GDP won’t make you feel as intoxicated as a full-THC strain. Instead, you’ll feel a deeper sense of bodily relaxation riding under the intoxicating buzz of THC, both making the CBD experience more mentally rewarding and the THC experience more soothing. CBD users will enjoy the slight THC buzz, and THC users will appreciate Harlequin GDP’s enhanced pain-fighting and relaxing effects.
